Put another way what we were told by the urolith
professors was that the kidney genetic difference
in those ferrets causes the pH to become too low
due to not dealing correctly with 4 amino acids.
The low pH then itself causes the cystine to drop
out of solution, resulting in cystine uroliths. If
I am not misremembering, and I don't think that
I am in this case, then other causes of low urine
pH would also allow for such precipitation but
the question becomes at what pH level it happens.
